sub x=1, a(1)^2 +b(1) + c=0,

a+b+c=0______eqn 1

sub x=-1, a(-1)^2+b(-1)+c=2

a-b+c=2_______eqn 2

sub x=2, a(2)^2+b(2)+c=8

4a+2b+c=8______eqn 3

from eqn 1

c=-a-b

eqn2

a-b-a-b=2

-2b=2

b=-1

eqn3

4a + 2b -a-b=8

3a+b=8

3a+(-1)=8

3a-1=8

3a=9

a=3

c=-a-b

c=-3--1

c=-2

What is the y-intercept of the function, represented by the table of values below

Basile [38]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Calculate m using the slope- formula

m = $\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }$

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 2, 15) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (1, 6) ← 2 ordered pairs from the table

m = $\frac{6-15}{1-(-2)}$ = $\frac{-9}{1+2}$ = $\frac{-9}{3}$ = - 3 , then

y = - 3x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute any ordered pair from the table into the partial equation

Using (2, - 3 ) , then

- 3 = - 6 + c ⇒ c = - 3 + 6 = 3

The y- intercept c = 3 → D

Answer:

correct option for first blank is 5/4 and for second blank is $\frac{ 3i\sqrt{7}}{4}$

i.e m= $\frac{5}{4}\pm\frac{ 3i\sqrt{7}}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation

$m^2 - \frac {5m}{2} = \frac{-11}{2}$

and we have to find m= ______ ± ________

We can use quadratic formula to solve this question.

The above equation can be written as: $m^2 - \frac {5m}{2} + \frac{11}{2} = 0$

and the formula used will be:

$m= \frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

Putting values of a= 1, b= -5/2 and c= 11/2 and solving we get: $m=\frac{-\frac{-5}{2}\pm\sqrt{{(\frac{-5}{2})}^2-4(1)(\frac{11}{2})}}{2(1)}\\\\m=\frac{\frac{5}{2}\pm\sqrt{(\frac{25}{4})-22}}{2}\\m=\frac{\frac{5}{2}\pm\sqrt{(\frac{-63}{4})}}{2}\\m= \frac{\frac{5}{2}}{2}\pm\frac{\sqrt{(\frac{-63}{4})}}{2}\\m= \frac{5}{4}\pm\frac{\sqrt{-63}}{4}$

Since there is - sign inside the √ so $\sqrt{-1}$ is equal to i and we have to divide $\sqrt{63}$ into its multiples such that the square root of one multiple is whole no so,

$\sqrt{63}$ = $\sqrt{9}* \sqrt{7}$ = $3* \sqrt{7}$

Putting value of $\sqrt{63}$ and $\sqrt{-1}$

the value of m= $\frac{5}{4}\pm\frac{ 3i\sqrt{7}}{4}$

so, correct option for first blank is 5/4 and for second blank is $\frac{ 3i\sqrt{7}}{4}$ .

*Please Help!* (Easy question) 20 POINTS

mariarad [96]

Yes - they have to be similar. Since they are using the same line as the hypotenuse, the ratio of the other two sides are in the same ratio (ie, the slope of the line), the 3 inner angles will be the same. Thus, the triangles will be similar.
